A kayak to remember on Ha Long Bay. Legend has it the gods sent down fire and emerald breathing dragons to help the Vietnamese defeat invaders from the north. Through those battles the waters turned green and they say the 2K+ inlets are actually made from the dragons that did not return to heaven.

“Your life is supposed to be a journey from one unique place to another; it’s not supposed to be a merry-go-round that brings you back to the same spot over and over again.” 👌🏼📖 Good read by Rachel Hollis. #girlwashyourface #journey#forwardmoving#hawaii#hawaiilife#islandlife#travel#explore#wanderlust#explorepage#explorer#welivetoexplore#travelblogger#viator#wheretogo#letsgo#oceanlife#adventuretime#hapa#mua#mualife#exploremore#welivetotravel

Earnslaw Burn was definitely a BIG highlight of the NZ trip, having never been in a helicopter before that was an awesome experience in itself! But arriving in Earnslaw Burn and having this magnificent place all to ourselves was truly life changing. I saw this place on the TV show Travel Guides Australia and I'm sooo glad that I made the effort to come here.

Add this place to your bucket list friends! I will go back any chance I get, there's just something about having solitude in a place like this. It heightens the senses, you can see every tiny glacial waterfall and listen to the avalanches and it just reminds you how small you are in this big world!
